A ferry takes several trips between points A and B. It moves at a constant speed of 0.35 miles/minute and takes the same route o
n each trip. The total duration of a round trip from point A to point B and back is 80 minutes, ignoring the time spent stopped at point B. If d is the ferry’s distance from point A in miles and t is the time in minutes, which equation models the ferry’s distance from point A for the duration of the trip?
A.
d = -|0.35t – 40| + 40
B.
d = -|0.35t – 80| + 80
C.
d = -|0.35t – 28| + 28
D.
d = -|0.35t – 14| + 14
A.
d = -|0.35t – 40| + 40
B.
d = -|0.35t – 80| + 80
C.
d = -|0.35t – 28| + 28
D.
d = -|0.35t – 14| + 14
1 answer:
The answer is -|0.35 t -14| +14
<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:
The problem statement is asking for an expression for distance in miles, so the constants in the expression will be miles. In the time it takes to get to point B (40 minutes), the ferry has gone (0.35 mi/min)×(40 min) = 14 mi. Hence the maximum value of the function must be 14. The only function with that characteristic is the one of selection D.

The first thing we must do for this case is to define variables.
We have then:
x: number of slices
y: total cost
We write the linear function that relates the variables.
We have then:
Then, we evaluate the number of slices to find the total cost.
-two slices cost:
We substitute x = 2 in the given equation:
Answer:
two slices = 2.2 $
-ten slices cost:
We substitute x = 10 in the given equation:
Answer:
ten slices = 11 $
-half a slice cost:
We substitute x = 1/2 in the given equation:
Answer:
half a slice = 0.55 $
Answer:
8<em>x</em> + 25
